So Pretty

Elodie Siobhan made her surprise appearance on Thanksgiving Day. She was kind enough to wait until I finished making the cranberry sauce, at which point my water broke. An hour later I was at the hospital and had started labor, and about two hours after that, she was born by C-section. (The Memorial Hermann system currently has a moratorium on VBAC.)

I had wanted to avoid spending Thanksgiving in the hospital, which is why she was originally scheduled for delivery on Nov 26, but in the end, it worked out really well. We are so happy to have her, and since she came on a holiday, people were in town and off work and able to visit her after such a grand entrance.

I can already tell she is going to be a drama queen.
